Kyle Pitts News
Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts continued his quiet campaign during Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. The young tight end hauled in both of his targets for 22 yards in the win. Pitts has only surpassed three receptions once over his last five games. To be fair, the Falcons rushed the ball over 40 times this week, so it was tough for any of the pass catchers to have much value. Although, Pitts has been a non-factor in this offense for a long time now. He should be considered a low-end TE2 for next week's matchup against the New York Jets.
Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts has surpassed 50 receiving yards once over the last five games. The good news is that Pitts has seen five or more targets in all of those games. However, the young tight end has been unable to do anything after the catch. It won't get any easier for Pitts versus the tough New Orleans Saints defense in Week 12. Quarterback Desmond Ridder is taking over at quarterback again, so maybe that will jumpstart this offense. Regardless, Pitts should remain a high-end TE2 for this upcoming Week 12 matchup.
Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts (personal) was not at the team's practice on Monday due to a personal family issue, but he's expected to return on Wednesday for the first official practice of Week 12. The Falcons are coming off their bye, so fantasy managers will be hoping that they schemed some ways to get Pitts more involved in the offense. Quarterback Desmond Ridder will be back as the starter under center this Sunday against the New Orleans Saints as well. In the first eight games with Ridder leading the offense, Pitts had 28 catches on 48 targets for 333 yards and a touchdown, including his best game in Week 5, when he had season-highs in catches (seven), targets (11) and receiving yards (87).

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts is a beast. Plain and simple. His size and speed metrics are from another planet. He is a matchup nightmare for safeties and linebackers, and he should be a dominant force in the red zone, that is, if his head coach knew how to use him correctly. He barely cracked a 70% snap share, was 43rd at his position in routes run (172), and was an inexcusable 38th in red zone targets with five. It is time for this team to realize the weapon that they have at their...
